JustRestore

Austin Texas, USA

Sabah Bardhan is the founder of JustRestore and a published artist, transforming furniture into bespoke, hand-painted functional art since 2019. An artist since childhood, she began with acrylics and watercolor before merging fine art with furniture restoration, surface design, and sustainable living.

Her work spans modern custom pieces, antique restoration (150+ years old), IKEA transformations, and custom artwork on canvas and watercolor.

A Zibra Golden Brush Awards finalist, Annie Sloan Painter in Residence (2021), and Star Painter (2025), Sabah collaborates with interior designers, architects, and creative communities worldwide—helping people turn furniture into art and creativity into confidence. Sabah is a highly active workshop facilitator. She conducts creative workshops and corporate experiences, helping individuals and teams reconnect with creativity through hands-on learning across the Middle East and North America, sharing her expertise in furniture painting, artistic finishes, and creative confidence-building. Her teaching style is hands-on, inclusive, and rooted in empowering others to explore creativity without restraints.

Sabah welcomes collaborations, commissions, workshops, and speaking opportunities. Connect to explore how furniture, art, and creativity can transform spaces—and people.
